Manchester United's head coach, Ruben Amorim, is grappling with finding a reliable attacking combination. Despite experimenting with various lineups, the team has struggled to score goals consistently. Rasmus Hojlund's goal drought and Joshua Zirkzee's recent resurgence add to the complexity. Amorim's rotating tactics aim to find a winning formula, but the lack of a proven goalscorer poses a significant challenge.
After head coach Ruben Amorim's experiment of deploying Kobbie Mainoo as a centre-forward against Crystal Palace failed to come off, Rasmus Hojlund was reinstated as the No.9 for last Friday night's FA Cup victory over Leicester City.
Joshua Zirkzee, fresh after climbing off the bench, ended his dry spell in front of goal against Leicester, bringing United level with one of the easiest goals he will ever score. Regardless of how simple it was, it will have done his confidence the world of good. There is no denying Hojlund has been starved of service, but United fans are losing faith in the Dane. He scored a very respectable 16 goals last season, prompting hopes he would build on that tally this term. He is not halfway to matching it.
He was excellent that evening, particularly in the second half when he moved to the right-sided No.10 role. However, Amad has made the right-sided No.10 position his own in recent weeks, starting three of the last four games in that role, meaning the position is his to lose.
